Went down by less than a length over 6f at Scottsville (stakes race) last month; on target twice in his last five outings; shown all winning form at Scottsville (two successes); faces a tougher assignment this time so unlikely to trouble the principals.

Record shows he knows where the winning post is (wins-runs record of 3-12); scored narrowly in a stakes race at Turffontein (dropped to 6f) 27 days ago; has to be taken seriously despite moving up in class.

Verdict

Dantonfromsandton isn't out of it, and Cats Pajamas is capable of running into at least a place. However, O'TENIKWA is hard to look beyond. He is a proven winner.
